(Ragweed, Common - 06)
We find it very interesting that the scientific name for ragweed is Ambrosia,
which was the delicious food eaten by the mythical Greek gods to make them live
forever, while many humans, today, suffer from hay fever caused by ragweed
pollen.

Presented here
are just a few of the countless components of God's creation. Just as we
cannot have human and animal life without water and plants, neither can we have lasting peace without
love and compassion. It is our hope
and prayer that this series will motivate people to live and act in a
cruelty-free manner; that we would no longer hurt or destroy each other, the
animals or our environment.
